Photos of the Big 5 alumni team in The Basketball Tournament

Playing The Basketball Tournament’s first-ever outdoor games at Harlem’s fabled Rucker Park, the Big 5 alumni team, matched up Saturday against the Patriot League’s Ex-Pats in the first round. The game began, but afternoon showers postponed it for 4½ hours — making it the first rain delay in TBT history. The game began shortly after 2 p.m. at Rucker Park and wrapped up indoors with the Big 5 team winning, 74-67, at Gauchos Gym in the Bronx, home of the New York-based AAU program.
